    Jim,

    My deepest apologies but it seems that Gemplus has dropped linux support
    on the RAD IIII.

    My version (3.0 b37) states on the box "Compliant with: Windows
    95/98/NT4/NT2000, Linux RedHat 6.2, Solaris 8 Run on: JDK 1.2.2". I just
    checked the developers site and it does not mention linux or Solaris any
    more :(.

    I'll try to see tomorrow if it is really the case.

    Sorry for being a bit cheeky on this. I did it because I use Debian
    myself.

    I think you have 3 options:
    - you return the box ASAP to try to get a refund
    - you use it on Windows (probably not an option)
    - you install it on a Windows box, copy the installation tree on Linux,
    look at the .BAT files and write shell scripts that do the same. This
    might not work if the new release is not full-java. Version 3.0 b37 was
    full Java as I have been able to run it on Mac OS X and Debian.

    My apologies again,
    JLuc.
